why does it have to return to normal mode after wot?  that i was the deal breaker for me... 
primary purpose for me is to reduce throttle lag. i dont care about fuel economy on my Z. |
It will increase the output all the way up to the point of WOT thus reducing throttle lag.
My Fit with my exhaust and intake sounds like a racecar with the Boost mode on

I would believe the Boost mode is just altering the tables so that you are getting to 100% throttle quicker to make it feel like there is no lag, but once you put it to the floor you are at 100% thus returning to "normal" mode i.e. 100% throttle.
It would be cool if they gave a break out of the changes.
Stock throttle table vs Apexi Boost mode.
Kenchan, if interested I would cross shop the Sprint Booster for features and price.

Yeah exactly David, but for me I really bought it more for the MPG increases. Just driving around town I am seeing a +4mpg and even higher on the highway. It makes you want to drive more effeciently.
I use the boost mode for when I get onto the freeway and then normally drive around in the Low Throttle mode.

wish they made the unit and harness separate so that i can use it on my Fit if i end up not really
liking it longer term (than 30 day money back) on my Z... |
Apexi is $150 for the controller and $50 for the harness, pretty good deal considering it should pay for itself with the increases in MPG over time.
